    2 Day Seminar DVD & Distribution CD Description
    This Chicago seminar follows the book, "The Art of Funding Your Film: Alternative Financing concepts. The book information comes alive listening to Carole teach you how to create your pitch. You will see people pitching their films, listening to Carole's guidance and pitching them again the next day is a shorter time with great clarity.

    Learn how to "make the ask." There are many things you need to know about people before you ask and Carole covers each one of them carefully. Asking too soon can drive a potential donor away and asking too much is just as bad. You will learn how, when and how to ask for.

    Are you applying for grants? If so, Carole tells you what to say, gives you an outline and a check list to know how to make a connection with your potential funder so when you connect with them you make an excellent impression. Lasting impressions are investments in our business.

    Asking for money begins with your proposal. This is covered in detail and you will learn how important those first 2 paragraphs are. Carole's chapters on funding are being taught in colleges and will help you get very clear on your film. Creating your proposal can bring your film to life.

    Creating your pitch is the next important element in funding and Carole is a master in helping you create your film with the right words. Words fund you film. Each one counts. Creating a visual description of your film is paramount to the funding process, this is fully explained and you will watch other filmmakers pitch and improve.

    Who will fund you type of film? Good question, Carole gives advice to many in the class and you will find an incredible amount of information on this subject.

    Asking Corporations for donation is a key to funding and this is fully explained. Carole suggests a one page outline to make the "ask" from business and corporations. Each item is discussed and explained. You will be able to recieve discounts and donations with this simple outline.

    How does branding work for independent and documentary filmmakers? This DVD goes into great detail to give you guidelines for product placement and how to ask and where to ask.

    This DVD was created for you to watch when convenient and you can move from one part to another quickly. You will find a wealth of information on these 2 DVD's and the CD on marketing is brilliant by author Mark Bosko.
